Parker's Stories

Parker recently celebrated his 20th Publish at school. When he and his classmates reached the mid-point of the school year they began working on their individual publishes. Our first born son was the first of the students to complete a publish and has become known as the class author (according to his teacher).

The students are asked to compose their stories in their journal. Once a story has been completed, they work with the teacher assistant to type and print their work. Each page is then illustrated by the student and the pages bound together in book form. Finally, the students share their publishes with the class.

Parker's topics have included dirt bikes (obviously), four wheelers,pandas, the circus, and even fruit loops!His 20th Publish was about Mario Kart.

Way to go Parker, so young and already appreciating the love for writting. I wrote my first mini book in third greade. We got to get them as hard covers. Make sure you keep them so you can show it to him when he is 17 he will love it!!
